Chayanon Khamkan

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Looks to fail WP:GNG and WP:SPORTBASIC based on my searches. A Thai search yielded nothing better than social media, forum posts and Wikipedia itself. Google News gave me 3 hits, all of which were trivial mentions in TrueID. See 1, 2 and 3. The best coverage is Himsanam but, when translated, the article is little more than a quote on him being happy that he scored a goal. The same website shares another quote from him in another post.

SPORTBASIC requires multiple published non-trivial secondary sources which are reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject. which is not found above when all I can find is a few instances of the player talking about himself on a Thai football website, which may or may not even be WP:RS (I couldn't see any indication of editorial oversight).

 * Comment: The brief-though-fairly-in-depth post on the Chiangmaipaemidi Facebook page seems to indicate that it was reproduced from an article by FourFourTwo. FourFourTwo appears to have since discontinued its Thailand coverage, though, so I haven't been able to verify the source. --Paul_012 (talk) 20:17, 11 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Interesting post. I'll admit I didn't even look at any of the social media hits as it's usually safe to just assume that it won't be RS. Interesting that they'd write anything about someone playing in the 4th tier of Thailand, though! Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 20:30, 11 December 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep - Per source above. Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 20:54, 18 December 2022 (UTC)
 * WP:SPORTBASIC explicitly asks for multiple non-trivial sources Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 22:15, 20 December 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete. One source is not enough to demonstrate WP:SIGCOV. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 01:15, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete - Article fails WP:GNG as the Facebook posting of what may be a FourFourTwo article isn't enough to show SIGCOV by itself. Jogurney (talk) 15:54, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
